When we go on the streets to do healing outreach we normally prepare with a time of prayer and worship. During the time we are on the streets we have back-up prayer from our supporters.Last month we were on the street doing outreach when a guy with lots of face piercings came up and said: “I need prayer!!”. He explained he was a drug addict, had enough of the life of addiction and wanted free. He was severely agitated and, despite what he said, would then keep drawing away, changing his mind and saying “no”. He had about 10 or 12 piercings on his face, lips, chin and ears. But there was nothing menacing about him, only sadness. The fact he was a drug addict tied in with his repeated pulling of his arms close to his chest and scratching his arms. We asked him: “do you want to be free?” He said he did, then he would pull away, being constantly in two minds. We said: “Jesus can set you free – do you want him to do it?” He said he did so I led him in a prayer of deliverance.After this we asked him: “do you want your sins to be forgiven?” He said he did, so we then led him in a prayer of repentance. He then seemed to change, having lost his agitation and acting like a different person. He suddenly put his arms round me, hugged me and said “I love you!” We reminded him Jesus was the one who sets people free. He didn’t have a bible, but we gave him the “Why Jesus?” and also a tract about salvation. Exciting stuff! He said he had come with a friend who was still being prayed for by others in our team. Afterwards they left together. It transpired that they had some local church connection through a drop in free lunch outreach."O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness!Bow down before him, his glory proclaim;with gold of obedience, and incense of lowliness,kneel and adore him: the Lord is his Name!"See More
